10 points? Feel dumb but i'm one of the smartest in class?

I feel that small tasks are hard but I easily conquer the harder ones why is that? I also have a short attention span because im dating someone and I cant concentrate in class because I always think of her. Is this why I feel like this and how can I fix my short attention span?

    I'm guessing the harder tasks interest you more and they bring you into focus. The lesser tasks in your mind might seem a low priority and take more time because of the mind wandering. That's a pretty simplified version of how the mind works, but from the information given, it makes the most sense.

    How to fix? I'm not sure. Everyone is different. If you're not interested in something, there's no way to really change that. I guess, though it sounds cheesy, I would suggest you just run with it and let things pan out. Sometimes, the more a person tries to control the situation the worse it gets, especially for someone with a short attention span.

    Source(s): I'm the same way at times, so are some of my friends.
